Abstract
- The article focuses on the metrics used for comparing greenhouse gases with focus on the Integrated Temperature Change Potential (IGTP). It states that the IGTP and global warming potentials (GWP) are asymptotically equal is the time horizon reaches infinity. It says that the IGTP is equal to the Sustained Global Temperature change Potential (SGTP) under standard assumptions when calculating GWPs.
